Pull tracing regression fixes from Steven Rostedt:
 "The clean up patch commit 0fb9656d957d "tracing: Make tracing_enabled
  be equal to tracing_on" caused two regressions.

   1) The irqs off latency tracer no longer starts if tracing_on is off
      when the tracer is set, and then tracing_on is enabled.  The
      tracing_on file needs the hook that tracing_enabled had to enable
      tracers if they request it (call the tracer's start() method).

   2) That commit had a separate change that really should have been a
      separate patch, but it must have been added accidently with the -a
      option of git commit.  But as the change is still related to the
      commit it wasn't noticed in review.  That change, changed the way
      blocking is done by the trace_pipe file with respect to the
      tracing_on settings.  I've been told that this change breaks
      current userspace, and this specific change is being reverted."

Commit 0fb9656d "tracing: Make tracing_enabled be equal to tracing_on"
changes the behaviour of trace_pipe, ie. it makes trace_pipe return if
we've read something and tracing is enabled, and this means that we have
to 'cat trace_pipe' again and again while running tests.

IMO the right way is if tracing is enabled, we always block and wait for
ring buffer, or we may lose what we want since ring buffer's size is limited.

<title>kernel/audit.c: avoid negative sleep durations</title>

audit_log_start() performs the same jiffies comparison in two places.
If sufficient time has elapsed between the two comparisons, the second
one produces a negative sleep duration:

  schedule_timeout: wrong timeout value fffffffffffffff0
  Pid: 6606, comm: trinity-child1 Not tainted 3.8.0-rc1+ #43
  Call Trace:
    schedule_timeout+0x305/0x340
    audit_log_start+0x311/0x470
    audit_log_exit+0x4b/0xfb0
    __audit_syscall_exit+0x25f/0x2c0
    sysret_audit+0x17/0x21

Fix it by performing the comparison a single time.

<title>audit: create explicit AUDIT_SECCOMP event type</title>

The seccomp path was using AUDIT_ANOM_ABEND from when seccomp mode 1
could only kill a process.  While we still want to make sure an audit
record is forced on a kill, this should use a separate record type since
seccomp mode 2 introduces other behaviors.

In the case of "handled" behaviors (process wasn't killed), only emit a
record if the process is under inspection.  This change also fixes
userspace examination of seccomp audit events, since it was considered
malformed due to missing fields of the AUDIT_ANOM_ABEND event type.

down_write_nest_lock() provides a means to annotate locking scenario
where an outer lock is guaranteed to serialize the order nested locks
are being acquired.

This is analogoue to already existing mutex_lock_nest_lock() and
spin_lock_nest_lock().

<title>tracing: Fix regression with irqsoff tracer and tracing_on file</title>

<content type='text'>
Commit 02404baf1b47 "tracing: Remove deprecated tracing_enabled file"
removed the tracing_enabled file as it never worked properly and
the tracing_on file should be used instead. But the tracing_on file
didn't call into the tracers start/stop routines like the
tracing_enabled file did. This caused trace-cmd to break when it
enabled the irqsoff tracer.

If you just did "echo irqsoff &gt; current_tracer" then it would work
properly. But the tool trace-cmd disables tracing first by writing
"0" into the tracing_on file. Then it writes "irqsoff" into
current_tracer and then writes "1" into tracing_on. Unfortunately,
the above commit changed the irqsoff tracer to check the tracing_on
status instead of the tracing_enabled status. If it's disabled then
it does not start the tracer internals.

The problem is that writing "1" into tracing_on does not call the
tracers "start" routine like writing "1" into tracing_enabled did.
This makes the irqsoff tracer not start when using the trace-cmd
tool, and is a regression for userspace.

Simple fix is to have the tracing_on file call the tracers start()
method when being enabled (and the stop() method when disabled).
